Have not seen any release from BMW stating.that will be an upcoming option (at least not on the base G87).

Supposedly there is a Purple color coming for 2025. But not sure on exact shade. I really want Techno Violet, but I assume the Thundernight Metallic from the M240i will be the one available.

A "sneak peek" picture of the CS was in a purple so take that for what its worth.

I am nearly certain all of those images are rendered. The actual pics in the referenced articles appear to be 100% camo.

Yup...thats why I said taje it for what its worth. I would think the CS would be given a special "release color" that is only available for the CS but who knows if, and what (just hope its better than ZB).

A Special Release Purple for just the CS could be an option. I was referring to the regular paint options rumored for 2025. That is why I assume the Thundernight Metallic will be an option since it is already sprayed on the M240i.

I really wish we had more unique colors at launch like this or my dream BMW color, San Remo Green Metallic.

Ricochet48 · 02-14-2024, 12:16 AM

Very surprised the M240i has better color options. Glad though as the M2 does not interest me at all.

In general BMW needs more exciting colors. Give me a green or orange please, something other than grayscale, blue, and red.

Verde Ermes over Tartufo.

I saw this car at the Chicago Auto Show over the weekend. There were a billion people around the car so I couldn't get any pics and I could not see the color listed on the car's sticker plaque. Luckily I found this video of it on youtube.

Is this a new purple color that could be on the M2 as well??

Is it an “iconic BMW M exterior color?” That’s what the CS link above reports any new color will be.

What a tease......the sticker listed prices and options for a few different color configurations but nothing specific. Whatever the case it was working as there were sooo many people drooling over that car.

Ronin76 · 06-08-2024, 08:22 PM

Well KR36 , it looks like you can stop waiting...it's happening.

KR36 · 06-13-2024, 10:05 PM

i tried to find some more pix.

I do like it…. But I’m not as wowed by it as I expected to be…

I think São Paulo yellow or Frozen grey are the absolute best for this platform (IMO of course)

gondolafanclub · 11-10-2024, 01:50 PM

i am not a fan of the bicolor wheels on it (or any of the colors)
